That night I couldn't sleep, so I pushed Humphrey away and got up, straightened my nightgown, and stood on the balcony. I sighed, and leaned on the rails. I felt something for Sebastian. No not a feeling, but everytime I look at him it hurts. There was a creak, and the rails snapped. I screamed as one of the rails bent back and cut my hand. I hissed and I fell frontward, and grabbed onto the ledge. Rails clatter onto the ground below me. I was hanging from the balcony with only my injured arm keeping me from falling. Blood from my hand was oozing down my arm. I ripped the hem from my nightgown, and tied it around the cut. I winced when it came in contact, but I have to do this without a prince in shinning armor. My grip started to slacken, and my fingers stumbled and slipped. The world slowed as I fell, braced myself with the death that came. My head lurched as I collided with the roof, and rolled off the roof and into someone's arms. I smelled a metal substance, blood, my blood. I felt wind on my face as I was rushed somewhere. I continued to hear a voice.

Hold on

I couldn't tell who it was because it was so blurry. I felt something stuck into my arm. Shortly after I felt a hand on mine.

It felt soft...like fabric.

My eyes started to close.

My eyes opened again, and I was in a dark room. I was laid on a cot with bandages on my arm, and I was wearing a white gown.

Hmm I must be in the hospital

I heard a mew.

Why is there a cat in here?

I ignored my question and smiled.

"Awe, where is that coming from?"

I whispered.

I tried to sit up, but I felt like I was being pelted by bricks, and I fell back down onto my pillow. I felt something crawling on my legs. I looked down and saw a black cat with wine red eyes.

"Hmm you remind me of someone..."

The cat crawled underneath my arm, and curled into a ball. I giggled, and stroked his fur.

"Meow if you like the name I give you..."

My mind kept flashing back to Sebastian, but I ignored it.

"Axel?"

Silence

"Baron?"

Silence

"Your so picky hmm...What about Alastor?"

I heard a meow.

"There we go Alastor, now if you don't mind I should be getting some sleep."

I heard Alastor meow.

"Hmm? Well I don't suppose you'll know who caught me do you?"

Silence

"I guess I'll ask about it later."

I snickered.

"Look at me. I'm talking to a cat...I was always very fond of animals, and they were always fond of me."

Alastor looked at me with his red eyes.

"You look so familiar yet I can't put my finger on it, well I think of one person, but that couldn't be possible...could it? Nah probably not."

I scratched Alastor behind his ears. I smiled while he purred in satisfaction.

"Alastor you're a naughty cat I'm trying to sleep."
